Last Highway Songtext
von The Dodge Brothers

I′ve rode trains and I've rode cars
And I′ve slept cold beneath the stars
And I've walked every mile of track in this great big world
And when that sun begins to rise
I pull my hat down and raise my eyes
And I look out along the trace of the last highway
Well I've see Chicago, Memphis, Shreveport, Dallas
Troy Alabama, Chattanooga Tennessee
I tried to make three or four my home
But the only place where I belong
Is on the last highway


Well the last kind words
I heard my baby say
Was "I′ll be back"
And that was twenty years ago
Oh dark was the night
And icy was the pale moonlight
As I walked alone and the Devil sought my soul
Well I′ve seen lonely street, jealousy lane
Suicide circle and murder avenue
An angel stopped me goin' down that road
And the only place where I belong
Is on the last highway

Well I′ve been drunk on my own tears
And I got straight but it took years
And I'll never walk that lonely road no more
I keep the face of the one I love
In my heart and in the stars above
And I never walk alone on the last highway
Well I′ve seen lonely street, jealousy lane
Suicide circle and murder avenue
An angel stopped me goin' down that road
And the only place where I belong
Is on the last highway
On the last Highway
On the last Highway
On the last Highway
